Listen to the song first to find the rhythm
No Capo
[Verse]
G
Eight years old a couple cane poles sitting down by the creek
Em
Our lines in the water watching those bobbers seeing that red sun sink
Cadd9
Mama's on the porch yelling supper's hot, y'all come and get it
Em D Cadd9
We yelled five more minutes.
G
At sixteen it was twelve o three standing at her front door
Em
Katie's dad said midnight, but we needed just a little more
Cadd9
Yellow light flipping on and off, interrupting that goodnight kissing
Em D Cadd9
We wanted five more minutes
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Time rolls by the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
G Em
Of the good stuff, the good times
Oh but they just keep on flying
Cadd9
Right on by like it ain't nothing
Wish I had me a pause button
Em D (Cadd9)
Moments like those Lord knows I'd hit it
Em D Cadd9
Give myself five more minutes
[Verse 2]
G
At eighteen turned my helmet in and walked to the fifty yard line
Em
It's just the coach and me after we lost state, ten to nine
Cadd9
And I cried man next time to get in here I'll have to buy a ticket
Em D Cadd9
Can't you give me five more minutes
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Time rolls by the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
G Em
Of the good stuff, the good times
Oh but they just keep on flying
Cadd9
Right on by like it ain't nothing
Wish I had me a pause button
Em D Cadd9
Moments like those Lord knows I'd hit it
Em D Cadd9
Give myself five more minutes
[Verse 3]
G
At eighty-six my grandpa said there's angels in the room
Em
With all the family gathered 'round we knew that time was coming soon
Cadd9
With so much left to say I prayed Lord I ain't finished
Em D Cadd9
Just give us five more minutes
[Chorus]
Cadd9
Time rolls by the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
G Em
Of the good stuff, the good times
Oh but they just keep on flying
Cadd9
Right on by like it ain't nothing
Wish I had me a pause button
Em D Cadd9
Moments like those Lord knows I'd hit it
Em D Cadd9
Yeah sometimes this ole life will leave you wishing
Em D Cadd9
That you had five more minutes
Em D Cadd9
Oh five more minutes
